Ribeira Sacra, a trending appellation, is cherished for its fine wines as well as its reasonable prices. Indeed, the Atlantic facade brings utmost freshness, and the heroic terrace cultivation provides Spain's most spectacular conditions!
A key witness to this audacious Spanish success, Guimaro produces cuvées of unparalleled accuracy. In the extreme climate of Galicia, the estate handcrafts wines far removed from the powerful and caricatured profiles, always fresh and digestible.
This major discovery has captured the attention of critics, including Robert Parker, who consistently expresses enthusiasm for these wines.
